Haunted

Folder: 
2005

insecurities bleed out of my torn skin

as sweet relief slowly makes it's way in

but no one cares that I sit here crying

and no one thinks of me as I sit here dying

I could disappear and no one would notice I was gone

and so I wear my smile like a shield but not for long

cause my reflection is starting to fade away

cause even the mirror doesn't care about me anyway



chorus

they use me for their own personal satisfation

and then after that I am a ghost missing in action

waving my hands in the air will they notice me

haunted by things inside I wonder where I could be



am I real or are these images in my head

when I speask do people hear what I have said

am I bleeding or are the voices that I hear

and why does the darkness trigger my fear

existing in the world I am just an empty face

happiness is a stranger to me that I want to taste

I would sacrafice anything to not be broken anymore

if breathing prevents happiness than what am I doing it for

chorus



if I could rid myself of one moment of my fantasy

maybe it would be enough to bring me back to reality

if I could zap these thoughts out of my brain

then maybe it would be enough to end the pain

chorus

Yikes, this sounds haunted and painful...emotions captured well here...that's what poetry is for, let it all out and share...Pam
